I'd like to know about their OTA updates if any, actual range vs claimed, how the interior controls feel vs tesla. E.g. HVAC controls, radio, internet, if there is any free connectivity stuff like slacker. I assume home charging will feel just like your old tesla. I guess if I'm serious about possibly changing I should be concerned about away from home charging. I only use the superchargers a few times a month. Not really needed (I have plenty of range) but convenient. I would have to get used to paying for it and having to set up something with charge america oor someone else. Even if it's just for piece of mind. Oh yea is the 3 years free charging from Electrify America unlimited or a monthly quota thing?
the free charging is from EA is for 30 minute sessions, I do not know if they can be stacked by switching units but on the 350kw units 30 minutes will get you close to 90% charged from under 20%. I do not think that the porsche tech side of things is close to being as robust as tesla's is and porsche unlike tesla doesn't beta test then tweak things via updates. slacker would be via apple car place, apple music is native. range reports far exceed what porsche is reporting, 270 mile+ is doable but is lower than tesla's ranges. the climate controls are via a haptic touch screen, 1 for porsche. the major difference is that the model S is a big and fast sedan while the taycan is a big fast sports car. driving a taycan is much different from a model S. but everyone has different needs.
It says 1 hour minimum between 30 min sessions. So you cant hope off and on. But as you pointed out, 30 min is a good amount to time at fast charging.
Good looking but good luck with charging.. How Tesla’s Charging Stations Left Other Manufacturers in the Dust
So if you only used 20 min you just screwed yourself out of the last 10 min? Seems like a total charge time for the three years would be better but then they would need a way to monitor how much you've used. Hard when you don't own the charging system. Probably multiple sessions with a max of 30 min/session This is not a game changer for me as I don't travel and rely on my home charge level for daily trips.
the is no doubt that tesla leads the way with their supercharging network and that the EA network porsche is leaning on has many issues. but while the EA network is wonky I haven't heard of any of their stations being overcrowded like many tesla superchargers are.
Well...when you have so few users, why would they be crowded? Each location often has fewer stalls than Tesla. Tesla keeps adding locations and stalls. Just check the map at supercharge.info. Tesla does have a Chademo adapter. I wouldn’t mind a CCS adapter like Europe has.
this isn't a debate. I've conceded that the supercharger network is the gold standard. enjoy your car
